Casa Galim - Blue Morpho - House on the beach

Casa Galim - Blue Morpho
is in Costa Rica’s province of Limon, bordered by the Talamanca Mountains. This stunning place of amazing pristine beaches will inspire your Caribbean dreams. The peaceful shoreline is a great place for sun worshipers. Surfers love the waves. Spectacular sea views abound with colorful sunrises and sunsets. Scenic jungle of tropical coconut trees and rich green vegetation harbors wildlife, exotic birds and thrilling waterfalls.

Our beach houses are located 45 meters (50 yards) from the sea! Take in the clean fresh air while you enjoy wandering among the fruit filled coconut trees on our wide shore. This lovely haven is tranquil and secluded yet only 3.5 km (2 miles) from the center of Puerto Viejo, where you will find fabulous cuisine and entertaining nightlife. In our cozy cabinas you’ll fall asleep to the sound of ocean waves and awaken to chirping birds, howling monkeys and the sounds of the tropical jungle. Wildlife surrounds you - iguanas, geckos and lizards, toucans, sloths, monkeys and the famous Blue Morpho butterfly. In the turtle season (summer and fall) huge leatherback turtles lay their eggs right on our beach.

Travelled with family
Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort
When we arrived at the property, which was booked one month and a half in advance and fully paid for, we found out that the house is rented to other people and that we have no place to stay. The owners did not make any effort to resolve the situation. Besides, the property is in terrible condition and not clean.
